BATCH / ONE VALUE PER LINE

Run this workbench down a column

Up to 200 lines, one at a time, in this browser. Each line takes the place of svg and everything else stays as you set it. Nothing is uploaded, and the row limit is not exceeded silently.

METHOD / LOCAL RUN

How this tool works

Local text transformation removes XML comments, normalizes tag-adjacent whitespace, and preserves quoted attribute values and text content.

Boundary: Markup minification only. Does not parse SVG semantics, optimize paths, or remove unused elements.

The calculation or transformation runs in your browser using the values entered above. No input is sent to UtilityForge for this tool.

FAQ

Questions about this tool

Does this contact any external system?

No. The SVG optimizer runs entirely in your browser.

How is the result computed?

The workbench states the exact method behind every result — the formula or procedure this page runs — so you can verify the computation instead of trusting a black box.

Does my input leave this device?

No. This workbench runs in the page: SVG are read by the code your browser already downloaded, and UtilityForge receives neither the values nor the result.

Is there a size limit on what I can enter?

Yes, and it is enforced rather than advertised: SVG (100,000 characters). The limit is a browser input limit on a tool that runs on this device, so nothing is truncated after being sent anywhere.

What does the svg optimizer not do?

Markup minification only. Does not parse SVG semantics, optimize paths, or remove unused elements.
